My issue with these kinds of changes in general is that they:
- undermine institutional memory
- make it harder to do backports due to the shuffling
- make it harder to track changes due to the shuffling

So the benefit to me has to be more than just a small decrease in some build 
times which most people are never going to notice anyway. Sorry. Just my 2c.
